Viacoin ElectrumX implementation
Which will be 10 times faster than the old Vialectrum Server.
SegWit compatible


ElectrumX comparison
The image below shows the difference of sync time between Bitcoin Electrum&ElectrumX.
For Viacoin it will be faster

Explaining it like you are 5

SegWit / Segregated Witness
Every transaction has certain information. Details of the exchange, signatures & an ID number.
SegWit separates the signatures from the transaction and into a parallel space.

Transaction malleability? Who cares?
Transaction malleability refers to a trick that allows an attacker to refer to a transaction but creates a different valid ID#.
Segwit solves this and will enable new means of protection against similar attacks.

Softfork: Old nodes will still see it all as valid. Meaning the update won't break any older versions.
New dog, new tricks: Separating the signatures gives more freedom for scripting, customization and new layers of functionality.

Libsecp256K1
Wait Lib what?: Everything important in concurrency has to be signed & verified using Math. That Math can be s-l-o-w.
Libsecp256K1 is an update in how to use Math to get an increase in the speed up to 4.9x of verifying transactions and blocks.

Version Bits, Weak Blocks & More
Versionbits: Allow simultaneous Soft Fork changes to be implemented 29 at a time, up from the current limit of 1 !

Weak blocks: Allow miners & nodes to rebuild found blocks from locally storage transaction data rather then having to download full blocks.
A possible 90% or more reduction in peak bandwidth requirements for full node operations.

The Lightning Network
The Lightning Network takes this idea of payment channels to the next level by creating a general network
which anyone can use to make off-blockchain transactions.
Confidential transactions: Mask the transaction amount is a possibility. This is a great privacy improvement.
Tons of other benefits like reduced UTXO, to keep it simple, it requires less resource to run a wallet/node.


“What the Lightning Network is creating [is] a system where you can
create a payment channel on a general network, and by participating on this network, you can send bitcoin off-chain to anyone — and it never hits
the blockchain until you close out the channel.”

Another way of looking at this is to think about the relationship between users who have payment channels open with each other.
“Through somebody else, you can reach anybody else. So, maybe it’s Alice, Bob, Carol, and Dave — Alice has a relationship with Bob, Bob has a relationship with Carol, [and] Carol has a relationship with Dave. Alice can send money to Dave through Bob and Carol.”

it's 10k in this very moment.

Sitting on 5 ETH and 300,000 BAY.

I'm a M A D M A N

But seriously once the peg is introduced BAY will go up. Worst cases scenario you make a little, moderate case scenario huge upside potential, best case scenario i'm a millionaire.

Plus the marketplace is tight.

this bitch will succ us good and leave us with great gainz. you can cap

What's going on here?

Buy Dopecoin.

because how are you going to get it folded. also where are people going to put it. also it has to be able to do it better. also its a bad idea.

>>1901815
Because it would cost 10x as much as the other two units in order to do something that's 1/10th as useful

Now please fuck off ideas guy

Not here to pump, that would threaten my long-term position. Just here to remind you that the BitBay marketplace is ~already active~ and functional. Cut out the middleman and sell on BitBay today.

im not buying your dumb coin

the fact that it has a working marketplace and is fairly developed, yet still is so fucking worthless and unknown is a massive red flag

>>1901716
Yeah because you're going to live that long? Obviously buy and hold is the thing to do over a life time. But that's with mutual funds, and retirement plans, and those are boring as fuck.

Short term looks really good for Ether. Someone tell me to buy in again.

Why 4 days I thought $200 in a week?
